The role and responsibilities of being an Editor

Editors assess the scope and quality of manuscripts, oversee the peer review process, and make recommendations based on feedback from peer reviewers. As an Editor, you will be responsible for ensuring that the journal continues to publish solid research that is useful for the community it serves.

You will be expected to:

  • Send out manuscripts for peer review and perform peer review
  • Suggest new topics
  • Provide feedback on the journal’s direction or performance
  • Promote the journal among your community to raise awareness of important new research

We hope that our Editors will be keen to share their hard work with colleagues, collaborators, and other connections. The most successful journals are those that are supported and promoted by their Editorial Boards.

We encourage Editors to discuss the journal among their colleagues, add it to their online profiles, and promote it at conferences.

Benefits of Editors

It also gives you the opportunity to interact with peers, establish a network for future collaboration, and gain valuable insight into the scientific publishing landscape.

As an editor, you will benefit from:

  • Your name and affiliation featured on the journal website
  • An editor certificate that recognises your position as an Editorial Board Member for Journal of Innovations in Digital Humanities Research and Practice.
